Book Mine Seismology  Data Analysis and Interpretation

Download or read book Mine Seismology Data Analysis and Interpretation written by S.N. Glazer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-27 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an in-depth analysis and interpretation methods applicable to mine-induced seismicity. It is based on over 40 years of experience in mine and exploration geophysics. Another unique feature of this book is the complete history of the caving process as evidenced by the recorded seismicity at the South African copper mine Palabora Lift 1. Until now, the literature has only presented theory and case studies discussing the interpretation of results, and there has been no discussion of the input-data quality or why a certain interpretation technique was applied. This book fills that gap. This book is a fascinating read, written by one of the world’s leading mine seismologists. It summarises the history and progression of mine seismology. It outlines the practical use of back analysis of data and how it can be used on a daily basis. The book explains how mine seismology can be used as an effective monitoring tool for key events as the mine progresses as well as for future caving operations.Anthony Allman MAusIMM, CP(Min), RPEQ Antcia Consulting Pty Ltd, Director, Mining Engineer The content of the book is really solid and robust and I have no doubt it is going to be considered a great contribution for the mining community.Raul Fuentes, Former Director of Master Program in Geomechanics Applied to Mining, Universidad de los Andes, Santiago, Chile This book is long overdue and helps to present some difficult concepts in a way that they can be clearly understood by non-experts in this area. Stefan has personally managed to take mine seismology from being a black-art into a useful tool to help make mines a safer and more controlled environment. Neil Hepworth C. Eng, MIMMM, Geomin Consultorio – Brazil, Consultant Mining and Geotechnics Seismic monitoring is an important tool in cave management. The information from monitoring allows a number of key production factors to be determined including cave advance rates, the approximate location of the cave back, insight into the size of the air gap and allows the tracking of broad changes in stress. These all assist in the day to day management of a safe and successful cave. Dr. Glazer’s book provides guidance on the application of microseismicity to cave management through a review of appropriate theory and more importantly illustrates its use through case histories, particularly from the Palabora block cave. The text will be a good addition for all practitioners in cave engineering and operations.Allan Moss, General Manager – Grasberg Underground Liaison, Copper Development, Rio Tinto

Book Great Projects For Scientific Collaboration East west north south  The   7th International Seminar On Nuclear War

Download or read book Great Projects For Scientific Collaboration East west north south The 7th International Seminar On Nuclear War written by Antonino Zichichi and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1992-08-29 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book some 50 papers published by K A Müller as author or co-author over several decades, amplified by more recent work mainly by T W Kool with collaborators, are reproduced. The main subject is Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) applied to the study of perovskites and other oxides with related subjects. This wealth of papers is organized into eleven chapters, each with an introductory text written in the light of current understanding. The contributions of the first editor on structural phase transitions have been immense, and because K A Müller and J C Fayet have published a review paper on the subject, the latter is reproduced in chapter VII. Not related to EPR is a part of chapter VIII on the dipolar and quantum paraelectric behavior with dielectric studies. In chapter X two papers proving the existence of Fermi glasses are reproduced.The year 1986 bears some significance: early in this year the paper by Bednorz and Müller on the possible observation of superconductivity was published. This resulted in a substantial shift in the paradigm of condensed matter physics, to which the present first editor has contributed scientifically with others and which will be reviewed in a second volume.

Book Design of Optimal Seismic and Acoustic Networks

Download or read book Design of Optimal Seismic and Acoustic Networks written by Valeriy Burmin and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monograph is devoted to the problems of the optimization of networks of seismic and acoustic observations on the surface of the Earth, and on cylindrical objects. The optimization problem is considered in the framework of non-statistical approach, based on the criterion of C-optimality introduced by the author. Criterion C-optimality allows us to solve linear problems of experimental design, regardless of the nature of the errors in the original data and the design matrix, random or systematic. In addition to the solutions of the optimal planning of observational networks in explicit form, the monograph examined algorithms for numerical solution of the definitions of discrete optimal design, which is the seismic and acoustic monitoring network. The monograph is intended for specialists in the field of applied and theoretical seismology, and will be useful for undergraduate and graduate students in related disciplines.

Book An Introduction to Mining Seismology

Download or read book An Introduction to Mining Seismology written by Slawomir Jerzy Gibowicz and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Mining Seismology describes comprehensively the modern methods and techniques used to monitor and study seismicity and rockbursts in mines. Key case histories from various worldwide mining districts clearly illustrate and skillfully emphasize the practical aspects of mining seismology. This text is intended as a handbook for geophysicists and mining and rock mechanics engineers working at mines. It will also serve as an essential reference tool for seismologists working at research institutions on local seismicity not necessarily induced by mining. - Presents a comprehensive description of seismicity induced by mining worldwide - Provides information on optimum network planning and seismic event location procedures in deep mines - Covers a broad array of topics including focal mechanism, moment tensor, and double-couple versus non-double-couple seismic events in mines - Includes data on source parameters and scaling relations for seismic events in mines

Book Assessing the Nation s Earthquakes

Download or read book Assessing the Nation s Earthquakes written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the 50 regional seismic networks funded by various federal, state, and private sources that operate autonomously in the United States. Most have aging equipment and suffer from declining sources of operating funds. Yet, they provide valuable scientific data as well as information about seismicity and earthquakes around their locales. The volume describes the advent of the new National Seismic Network, operated by the U.S. Geological Survey. The National Seismic Network provides a unique opportunity to integrate the regional networks with the national network. This system will preserve the valuable work of the regional networks and enhance the capabilities of the national network.
